Well she made the right decision. This is not coming as a squirrel-hater but I've heard of people being killed in car wrecks sweerving to avoid squirrels in the road.
I'm trying to figure out whether I should tell her about the time I was driving 60mph or so down a curvy rural road in VA, when the car in front of me hit a squirrel, it was still twitching as I went past, split seconds later.
So I turned around and ran over it again, put it out of its misery.
what is this "sweerving" of which you speak?...
